Hybrid Stainless Steel....New Era in Steel Industry !!


New Era of Steel is at Kickoff
As automobile industries are on fast track demand of all segment of automobile is increased many fold form the last 5 year. According to business today research report automobile sector saw a growth of 18% from 2003 to mid of 2008. After that due to recession it got some speed breaker but still it got a growth of 3% where every sector loses.
This rise in demand have pushed manufacture to demand more steel and to have extra edge they are investing too much on R&D sector for better material for car safety. That gave birth to a new stainless steel that is HYBRID SATINLESS STEEL ASSEMBLY (HSSA).
This HSSA is 50% to 60% lighter than normal 304 or 316 grade of stainless steel and 60% to 70% it can absorb shock or we can say harder. So it would have great use in making body parts of car where weight is biggest constrain with safety. By using this HSSA the car would be safer by 60-70% with its very light weight.
HSSA can also attain very thin thickness of about 20 micron so we can easily give that a many shape by keeping its hardness. It is having a very good deep drawing capability and it is formable too.
In HSSA SS 316 fiber is sandwiched between SS304 grade which give its unique characteristics which is better to any stainless steel grade.

Aluminum is also a good material for making automobile parts but it lacks in strength so HSSA is better than any material found so far with its great ahead.
This HSSA is under research work for finding its exact strength, stress and strain capacity and fatigue in Cambridge University and Volvo is also working on that for its implementation in automobile.
The only negative thing which I see in this material is its cost. Its cost is going to be too much as its R&D cost is going to be very much and its manufacturing cost will also be high. However when technology come it come with another technology for its cheap manufacturing as we saw in computer. I hope that when it will come to market it is going make a new era in steel industry.
Hope you like my work…...please let me know.

IPL.. India's Great Tamasha !!

Why Kolkata Knight Rider is losing?

Building pressure to perform is necessary for efficient completion of work but if the pressure and extra involvement of other factor come it shows negative result as with the case of Kolkata Knight Rider (KKR).
Owner of KKR, Mr. Sharukh Khan is simply failed in his over maneuver move to clinch the IPL title. Sharukh Khan of Red Chilli Entertainment and Juhi Chawala with her husband have invested $ 75.1 million for purchasing players but still they are on a race to get lowest position in IPL ranking. That is something amazing for me.
KKR’s coach John Buchanan came with a theory of multi captaincy theory , but I would say this is cricket where a team play and each and every individual is equally important not only the captain. Captain role is just take decision by consulting form all the team member. So making captain and changing captain simply hurt the sentiments of other team member.
KKR team is not less in any parameter like batting, bowling and fielding but still they are not in run to lift the trophy, it is really ironical where most talented pool of players are playing like Saurav Ganguly, Isant Sharma, Brad Hoodge and many world class player are almost out of the race.
Today KKR lost its 6th game in a row and still no chance of improving in team performance. The main reason for these humiliating defeats are extra pressure and extra involvement of other member who don’t know much about cricket. The failure of this team we can relate to corporate world also as we can’t work under much pressure. If you think that your boss is watching you with his third eye and anytime you can be sacked then I am sure that no one can work under such pressure higher than normal.
Recently KKR coach john Buchanan’s multi captaincy theory was opposed by legend of cricket Mr. sunil Gavaskar but Sharukh khan made a very disappointing remark on him saying “ mind your own business” it is his team and he will handle all its working. That shows how a owner with money power and who don’t know much about cricket play a poppet game with his players. KKR lost many matches but didn’t lose much money as they have many sponsors but still they are going to be in loss this year.
Is this ruining our cricket? Well I think yes but I would also like to say that yes this IPL is giving a good exposure to new talent and money. IPL is also giving a corporate taste in cricket where each player is employee and working under a high pressure. Cricket is no more a gentle man game and the cricket sentiment are tottered now.
What do you think guys? Please let me know.

CORE VOTING SOLUTION

CORE VOTING SOLUTION (CVS)

Vote for India, Lead India, Dot hai to Hot hai , these campaign is for increasing voting percentage of India but the question is does these campaign really works? If it works then why the voting percentage of is decreasing per election? If we see the voting percentage in last four elections from 1998 to 2009, the number of person coming out to vote is decreased from 50.13% in 1998 to 44.13% in 2009. This is not only with Mumbai only because whole of India is facing this decline.

Does this shows that people are now less responsible for the government or they don’t have choice to select form corrupt politician. Well in my opinion this is not the only factor for its declining voting percentage there is major factor which restrict people to cast their vote.

The main reason which restricts people to cast their vote is unavailability of voter registration and voter ID card. Now people are not a permanent resident of a particular state, city or locality. According to job and other factor people of Punjab are in Mumbai now and people of Mumbai are in Punjab and the old voter ID becomes waste for their new location and they can’t vote. Everyone is not Amir Khan and Sharukh Khan who takes flight to Mumbai from US and South Africa to cast their vote. So this becomes impossible for a common people even for middle class which are the major section of India’s population and staying at various parts of India.

If you see the figure of voting percentage only 40-50% vote is castes across India except  north eastern state which is having a very good data of above 70% every election and in Mumbai it is only 44.13% which almost equal to Kashmir. Leaving north eastern state all state have similar figure of voting percentage.

Is this correct picture of india’s hudge population of above 18 is votes 44% , my answer is no. as many are not in the list and many have shifted to other place from their native place. So only 5-10% elects our MP and this is bitter truth of largest democratic country.

I started thinking about the solution of this big problem which is going to rise further and further and I got an idea of  “Core Voting Solution”.

Core Voting Solution (CVS) will be a System Application Program with its central data base situated at any part of India under election commission of India. This CVS will take data of all the Indian people with their proof of identification like DL, PAN card etc and then the whole data will be created and stored in that central data base. Suppose a person moves from Kochi to Mumbai he can vote for his candidate from Mumbai itself for Mumbai candidate by just filling a transfer from online from the election commission website. But for that the person should have being staying in Mumbai from the last 2 years. That will give enough exposure of what that location need and what are the demand of common people there.

 Making everything online will ease the voter as well as election commission. I am not bragging only educated person who can fill the transfer form sitting at home but for uneducated person we can put special camp where they can go and fill the transfer form with the officer sitting there. So if will go to vote from anywhere in India just take out the print of your voter ID with a proper serial number and go to use your right in selecting a proper politician.

CVS will defiantly help in solving constantly decreasing voting percentage and then we can say that our PM or CM is purely elected one form the largest democratic country that is INDIA .
